Micah 3
1 Then said I, Hear, I pray you, ye heads of Jacob, and ye judges of the house of Israel, —Is it not yours to know justice?
Boye, nalobaki: « Boyoka, bino bakambi ya libota ya Jakobi, bino batambolisi ya libota ya Isalaele! Ezali bino te bato bosengeli koyeba malamu mibeko?
2 Ye haters of right, and lovers of wrong, —tearing away their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
Nzokande, ezali bino bato bozali koboya bolamu mpe bozali kolinga mabe. Bozali kolongola poso ya nzoto ya bato ya libota na ngai, bozali kolongola misuni na bango mpe kobuka mikuwa na bango.
3 Who indeed have eaten the flesh of my people, and, their skin from off them, have stript, and, their bones, have they broken in pieces, —and will spread them out, as flesh with a fork, and as flesh, in the midst of a pot.
Bozali kodunda misuni ya bato ya libota na ngai, bozali kolongola bango poso ya nzoto mpe kobuka mikuwa na bango. Bozali kokata bango mike-mike lokola misuni oyo bakalingaka to oyo batokisaka na nzungu. »
4 Then, shall they make outcry unto Yahweh, but he will not answer them, —that he may hide his face from them, at that time, even as they have made wicked their doings.
Yango wana, tango bakobelela Yawe, akoyanola bango te. Na tango wana, akobombela bango elongi na Ye likolo ya mabe na bango nyonso oyo basalaki.
5 Thus, saith Yahweh, concerning the prophets who are leading astray my people, —who bite with their teeth, and then cry—Prosper! and whoso holdeth not to their mouth, they hallow against him a war!
Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi mpo na kotelemela basakoli ya lokuta oyo babungisaka bato na ngai nzela: « Soki bapesi bango eloko ya kolia, basakolaka kimia; soki bapesi bango te eloko ya kolia, basakolaka bitumba.
6 Therefore, shall it be night to you, for lack of vision, and darkness to you, for lack of divination, —and the sun, shall go in, over the prophets, and the day, shall be overcast because of them;
Na butu, bokozwa lisusu bimoniseli te. Soki bapesi bango te eloko ya kolia, molili ekozingela bino mpe bokokoka lisusu kosakola te! Moyi ekobimela lisusu basakoli yango te, mpe mokolo ekokoma molili mpo na bango.
7 And the men of vision, shall turn pale, and the diviners, shall blush, and shall put a covering upon their lip, all of them, —because there is no answer of God.
Bamoni makambo bakotonda na soni, mpe bato oyo balobaka makambo oyo ekoya bakosambwa. Bango nyonso bakobomba bilongi na bango, pamba te Nzambe akoyanola bango te. »
8 But, in very deed, I, am full of vigour, with the spirit of Yahweh, and of justice and of valour, —to declare to Jacob, his transgression, and to Israel, his sin.
Kasi ngai, na nzela ya Molimo na Yawe, natondisami na nguya, na bosembo mpe na mpiko mpo na kobimisa polele mabe ya Jakobi mpe lisumu ya Isalaele.
9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and ye judges of the house of Israel, —who abhor justice, and, all right, do pervert:
Boyoka maloba oyo, bakambi ya Jakobi mpe batambolisi ya Isalaele, bino oyo bolingaka makambo ya sembo te mpe bobongolaka makambo ya alima,
10 Building Zion, with deeds of blood, —and Jerusalem, with perversity.
bino oyo botongaka Siona na kosopa makila, mpe Yelusalemi na kosalaka makambo mabe.
11 Her heads, for a bribe, pronounce sentence, and, her priests, for a price, give direction, and, her prophets, for silver, divine, —yet, on Yahweh, they lean, saying, Is not, Yahweh, in our midst? there shall not come upon us, calamity.
Bakambi na yango basengaka kanyaka liboso ya kokata makambo, Banganga-Nzambe na yango basengaka misolo liboso ya koteya, mpe basakoli na yango basengaka mbongo liboso ya kosakola. Nzokande, babombamaka na sima ya Kombo ya Yawe tango balobaka: « Boni, Yawe azali kati na biso te? Pasi ekoki kokomela biso te! »
12 Wherefore, for your sake, Zion, as a field, shall be ploughed, and, Jerusalem, unto heaps of ruins, shall be turned, —and, the mountain of the house, shall [be] like mounds in a jungle.
Yango wana, likolo na bino, bakobalola Siona ndenge babalolaka mabele ya bilanga. Yelusalemi ekokoma liboke ya mabanga, mpe ngomba epai wapi batongaki Tempelo ekokoma ngomba moke oyo ezipami na matiti.
